Closing Night

We had our final performance of After the Rain tonight. Both shows went very well and I had a great time working on this project! I was pleased with the reviews and comments we received about the show and look forward to working with Yara again.

While this show has closed, I'm still emerged in the downtown theater world as rehearsals continue for Oph3lia going up at HERE in June. This will definitely be a show to watch out for! So stay posted for updates as the summer draws near.

2nd Review of After the Rain

Another review of After the Rain by Kat Chamberlain, nytheatre.com

Excerpts from this review include:

"The physical rendition of the story is affecting, especially the movement of the train and the action by the girl [Hana Kalinski]".

"Hats off to the artistry he and his company have put into the entire look of the show. It is breathtakingly exquisite. It is also a worthy attempt to wed literature to theatre, and the traditional Japanese art of shadow puppet, costumes, and music to modern dance and multimedia".
